Bullying can happen
to anyone, at any time in their school career, but there
are some characteristics and factors which might make it
more likely..........................................

Comment

Any child can become
the victim of bullying if he or she is put into a school
where bullying is not tackled effectively. Being different
in some obvious way (such as ethnicity, disability or religion)
may make it more likely that a child will be bullied. However,
research seems to be pointing towards social skills and
character as being even more closely linked to involvement
in bullying than these more obvious factors. What is often
not clear is whether a child is bullied because she is anxious
and has low self- esteem, or is anxious and has low self-esteem
because she has been bullied.
